ATC with carousel.comp and M6 remap

Ok andypugh with the new version of carousel.comp:

float pin fwd-dc "Velocity or duty cycle when forward rotation is desired";
pin in float rev-dc "Velocity or duty cycle when reverse rotation is desired";

My step by step driver has 2 pins step and excuse my ignorance but how do I reverse the rotation, output of:

float fwd-dc ## produces a square wave
float rev-dc ## produces a reverse square wave

How should I wire these pins to the driver step dir.

Are you using software stepping, a Pico card, a Mesa card or something else?

Most support velocity-mode, but the way the mode is set is different.

Andypugh you're too good and fast

I use a mesa 5i25 and 7i76 for i / o and for stepdir my drivers I would like to use for ATC are normal driver step dir
Thanks anyway now I do some tests then I resent

Presumably these steppers are connected to the 7i76?

If so, then you set the stepgen to velocity mode with control-type and connect the carousel component

car-pos-req = 2 !!! (it should be 1 no 2)

carousel.comp MASTER

I added in the .ini file the parameter from:
RANDOM_TOOLCHANGER = 0
and now it seems to work

Greetings gmarconi2

Is it a random tool changer

Ok andypugh because it works with RANDOM_TOOLCHANGER = 0
and it does not work with RANDOM_TOOLCHANGER = 1

greetings gmarconi2

if it is posible can you add your Complete Folder from a Working Mashine
so others can see how to do

Now I'm at work tonight when I can send the complete configuration.
